I switch between Auto and Manual mode sometimes throughout my daily commute (not like mid-driving, although I think that's fine too). I mean I'll be driving in auto, then at a light I'll switch to manual, etc. get bored 15 minutes later, switch back.
I was in manual, pulled up to a light, put it in auto, got a phone call (distracted) then forgot and thought I was still in stick. When I go to shift up (thinking I'm in 1st), I popped it into neutral. It was pretty embarrassing...

I've never done that, but I've done sorta the reverse - I've put it in manual mode, pulled up to a red light, and when the light turned green forgotten that it was in manual mode and that I needed to shift from first to second. Suddenly realizing that your car is revving really LOUDLY and remembering that you need to shift is an unnerving experience for sure!
